About: Blend of three MGP mash bills: 45% wheat bourbon – 4YO, 99% corn bourbon- 5YO; and 21% rye bourbon – 5YO
Tasting notes: Remember coming home from school as a kid and getting a fruit roll up? This first taste and smell takes me back to those moments as a kid. Then, a blast of cinnamon, caramel, pepper and buttered Texas toast. This isn’t a perfect whiskey, but all the notes hit just about as good as they can. Finishes on the shorter side of a long finish, but long nonetheless with a lovely hint of cinnamon.
Score: 90
All samples tasted blind 3 times on 3 different days.
